        s.set_tint(False)

    py5.shape(s)

Description#

Apply a color tint to a shape’s texture map. This can be done for either the entire shape or one vertex.

This method differs from Py5Shape.tint() in that it is only to be used outside the Py5Shape.begin_shape() and Py5Shape.end_shape() methods. This method only works with the P2D and P3D renderers.

Calling this method with the boolean parameter False will delete the assigned tint. A later call with the boolean parameter True will not restore it; you must reassign the tint color, as shown in the second example.

This method has additional color functionality that is not reflected in the method’s signatures. For example, you can pass the name of a color (e.g. “green”, “mediumpurple”, etc). Look at the online “All About Colors” Python Ecosystem Integration tutorial for more information.

Underlying Processing method: PShape.setTint
